My husband and I don't really plan on eating here because we just come to use the machines, take a few classes, and sit in the hot tub (which is pretty amazing); however, we decided to give it a shot just to say we've eaten there. Life Cafe's philosophy is to provide clean, healthy food to the people using the facilities. That means no high fructose corn syrup, no artificial ingredients, organic and gluten-free options, and so forth. To my surprise, they actually do a good job of sticking with this philosophy and creating a yummy menu. They also make a variety of smoothies with fruits, juices, yogurt, and milk (almond milk available for $.50 more). Whey protein is added to nearly all smoothies but you can request VeganMax protein instead, which is Lifetime's vegan protein supplement. SWEET. (I hate whey.) My husband ordered the savory roast beef sandwich and I had a wild-caught grilled salmon salad with a smoothie. The food is made fresh behind the counter so there is a slight wait. However, you're able to sit at the table and hang out until they bring the food to you (you're given a number sign when you order). My husband's sandwich seemed kind of small; yet, my salad was huge. They were both REALLY GOOD -- much better than we had expected from a place inside a fitness center. My strawberry/banana/orange juice smoothie was good although I could taste the protein powder with every sip. I got used to it. I wish they had more veggie smoothies. The cafe has a good amount of tables, large windows, and shelves of products for sale. I pretty much ignore the walls of products, but the snack bars are cool. So what's the catch? Why the four stars? The food is EXPENSIVE! Kyle's sandwich and my salad were nearly $9 each. I realize that the quality is amazing (and heck, Lifetime's membership isn't cheap) but I just can't afford to pour more money into this place. I'm still glad we tried it!

Maybe it's all that serotonin straight from working out, the friendly employees, or the nice natural light that'll flood right into this cafe. I enjoy just sitting here. Smoothies are awesome.

There's definitely something for everyone. We ordered a few of their mini pastries and a tiramisu. The mini pastries were delicious and made for the perfect little treats. Unfortunately, the tiramisu was a bit of a miss for me. I love a good tiramisu, but I felt like it was missing that rich espresso flavor I was hoping for. That said, it definitely didn't deter me from coming back! I didn't get a chance to try the gelato this time, but there were several flavors I had my eye on. I'll definitely be back to give them a try. Overall, such a cute bakery with a great variety of treats!

I had a small window to pick up the product (between 3pm and 4pm), so I was guessing I would get what didn't sell that day. I was pleasantly surprised what I received. I got a mini cream puff, eclair, cannoli, spinach croissant, and a few other products. All were very good. In addition, the young lady let me taste some gelato. They have around 12 different flavors. I tried the mint one. Outstanding. I will buy that one next time I visit. The place is fairly small and I can't speak for the selection at the beginning of the day, but what she packed was a great sample of what they offer.

Very disappointed, will not be returning…read more This was my first time visiting this location, and unfortunately, it will also be my last. I've never had such poor service at any other Starbucks. First, I stood at the register for about 5 minutes. Several employees saw me, but no one acknowledged me. I just stood there awkwardly while they all continued doing other things. That alone already felt rude and unwelcoming. When someone finally came to take my order, I asked for a matcha frappuccino, but they gave me a matcha latte. I respectfully let them know, and instead of just remaking it professionally, I could hear them talking to each other through their headsets right in front of me, saying things like, "No, she ordered a latte." Not only could I clearly hear them, but I had also politely and clearly stated that I ordered a frappuccino. They took the drink back and gave me a second one but it was clearly just the latte blended with ice. It was watery, runny, and nothing like a real thick frappuccino. When they handed it to me, one of them even pointed at the drink and said, "That's a frappuccino," like I didn't know what I was talking about. I replied, "Yeah, I know. That's what I ordered -- not a latte." And then they continued talking about me over the headset again. It was just so unnecessarily rude and uncomfortable. The staff were slow, dismissive, and clearly lacked basic customer service skills. After reading some other reviews, I realize I'm not the only one who's had this experience. Sadly, I totally agree with all the negative feedback. I won't be coming back here again.
